"secrets". "No matter how many people you may lose, you have no choice but to go on living." SPIRIT OF THOSE WHO HAVE FALLEN
Shigure nodded at Wahei's words. "Our chakra is attuned to our spirit, it carries the essence of our life. You have a piece of Natsuo-jiisan in you now, so you can definitely understand him. Maybe even better than I did back then." he admitted, chuckling lightly at the thought. Natsuo, due to his position as a member of the branch house, had to act in a certain way when they were in the Hyuuga District, and although they were close, Shigure didn't even know he had a relationship with someone at the time. It was the harsh reality of the Hyuuga clan, something he was driven to change in the future, no matter how hard it may be. "The life of us shinobi is full of suffering. I've learned that at a very young age. It is sad that he had to go this way, but if something of his spirit is still left inside of you, I'm sure he will be able to find some peace, seeing the world through your eyes I mean." the smile, albeit bittersweet, was still full of compassion and care. Shigure had a good heart, it was in his essence, and he had overcome all the suffering that rendered him incapable for many years, following the loss of his loved ones. Never again he would falter and fall like that, it was a promise he had made in honour of those who had fallen.
Still, he sighed, and his smile faded as he mentioned his executioner. "Natsuo-jiisan was strong, so I can only imagine how powerful this woman must've been to have been able to end his life... It is scary, I know..." he gazed away to the horizon for a moment, pondering about all those dense subjects. When he heard Wahei sob, he looked back at him and saw his tears. With his right hand, he reached out to the boy's shoulder and held it tenderly. "My friend, you are not alone. While I cannot guarantee we will be okay, I can at least guarantee I will do everything in my power to protect you and Yoru. And together we will grow stronger, and one day we might very well change the world. Don't lose your faith, no matter how hard it is, no matter how painful it may be. And if you do falter, look at me... I'm carrying on, even though I lost Kirisame, Natsuki, Natsuo... Their lives may be gone, but they will live forever in my heart, and they will give me the strength to overcome all obstacles." he said, his tone, although empathetic, was still full of determination.
That was the Will of Fire, the one thing that made the Hidden Leaf different from the other villages.
"So what if it seems hopeless? If it were me, I still wouldn't give up. Embrace your dreams. And, whatever happens, protect your honour as a Shinobi, for the price of freedom is steep."
